Death is coming

The closer death creeps up upon me the less I am able to understand the reasons for life or living.

Yes I have experienced a close family member dying and unlike television it takes decades to handle such a thing. To think I am going to put my family through such a thing when I finally leave is more horrific to me than the thought of death itself.

My life was and is still a learning experience but when all said and done what am I to do with all this accumulated learning over my lifetime if I just die. There is no logic or reason to this.

Long ago I became aware that the God story that is sold to the majority is just a nice story to give mankind with a message of a basic layout of how nice life could be if everyone followed these ideas. Not many in life do and if one thinks about it the good and evil structures actually depend on each other. The good that can be experienced in life is only understood as good when there is it's opposite to compare it to. This is not rocket science only common sense in reality. I am not saying we need to experience bad but understanding in it is needed to appreciate the great things many of us can have in our lives. From birth to death there are many ways mankind helps his fellow man. How many ways can you help?

The Quiet Call Of The Inner Voice

By Evan Sanders


There are these moments during particular days where I have to be incredibly truthful with myself about what I am going through and feeling.

I know when it is about to occur because I get this wave of energy from the base of my neck down to my back and I feel my mood start to change. I once was frightened of it, the sensation of water about dripping down my back, but in time I've learned how to get used to it.

These moments of honesty are followed by a settling of thought, emotion, and almost a numbness that comes with it all.

Sometimes we are going through life not realising that there are things under the surface that we don't see. We think that we have totally healed or have moved on, but in reality there are still pieces to the puzzle that must be put together.

There's an amazing balance between moving forward and making the effort, whatever the situation might be and starting to understand what is going on within. I think much of the time when someone is hurt and people recognize it they attempt to tell that person to pick themselves up as fast as possible and forget the past. This information, while trying to be helpful, isn't really realistic - because the same person who gave that advice, in a similar scenario, couldn't possibly take it.

Don't attempt to manipulate or block out your thoughts and emotions. Let them flow through you. Learn from them. Understand them. Feel them. Then, when you have spent enough time with them, move forward. Move forward into who you can be right now. Sometimes it's incredibly tough to handle those thoughts and emotions but you have to be willing to battle through it.

Have a very honest moment with yourself.

Don't run. Don't hide. Face everything in life head on with the courage, love, and passion it takes to really make a difference in this world. Life has a very interesting way of sending you exactly what you need to experience to help you grow. If you accept these challenges you may receive the greatest rewards of all. Know that there is a plan for you.

When those moments are over, that's when you can move forward. But make sure you don't attempt to change everything while you are in it. Something is trying to talk to you. Open yourself to emotions and let them talk reason into your heart.
